ζητεῖτε δὲ πρῶτον τὴν βασιλείαν τοῦ θεοῦ καὶ τὴν δικαιοσύνην αὐτοῦ καὶ ταῦτα πάντα προστεθήσεται ὑμῖν
But seek ye first the kingdom of God, and his righteousness; and all these things shall be added unto you.
בְּטַח בַּֽיהוָה וַעֲשֵׂה-טוֹב שְׁכָן-אֶרֶץ וּרְעֵה אֱמוּנָֽה׃
Trust in the LORD, and do good; so shalt thou dwell in the land, and verily thou shalt be fed.
עֵקֶב עֲנָוָה יִרְאַת יְהוָה עֹשֶׁר וְכָבוֹד וְחַיִּֽים׃
By humility and the fear of the LORD are riches, and honour, and life.
יִרְאַת יְהוָה לְחַיִּים וְשָׂבֵעַ יָלִין בַּל-יִפָּקֶד רָֽע׃
The fear of the LORD tendeth to life: and he that hath it shall abide satisfied; he shall not be visited with evil.
καὶ αὕτη ἐστὶν ἡ ἐπαγγελία ἣν αὐτὸς ἐπηγγείλατο ἡμῖν τὴν ζωὴν τὴν αἰώνιον
And this is the promise that he hath promised us, even eternal life.
ἐὰν μὴ λάβῃ ἑκατονταπλασίονα νῦν ἐν τῷ καιρῷ τούτῳ οἰκίας καὶ ἀδελφοὺς καὶ ἀδελφὰς καὶ μητέρας καὶ τέκνα καὶ ἀγροὺς μετὰ διωγμῶν καὶ ἐν τῷ αἰῶνι τῷ ἐρχομένῳ ζωὴν αἰώνιον
But he shall receive an hundredfold now in this time, houses, and brethren, and sisters, and mothers, and children, and lands, with persecutions; and in the world to come eternal life.
בְּשֵׁשׁ צָרוֹת יַצִּילֶךָּ וּבְשֶׁבַע׀ לֹֽא-יִגַּע בְּךָ רָֽע׃
He shall deliver thee in six troubles: yea, in seven there shall no evil touch thee.
וַעֲנָוִים יִֽירְשׁוּ-אָרֶץ וְהִתְעַנְּגוּ עַל-רֹב שָׁלֽוֹם׃
But the meek shall inherit the earth; and shall delight themselves in the abundance of peace.
רְצוֹן-יְרֵאָיו יַעֲשֶׂה וְֽאֶת-שַׁוְעָתָם יִשְׁמַע וְיוֹשִׁיעֵֽם׃
He will fulfil the desire of them that fear him: he also will hear their cry, and will save them.
הַלְלוּ יָהּ׀ אַשְׁרֵי-אִישׁ יָרֵא אֶת-יְהוָה בְּמִצְוֹתָיו חָפֵץ מְאֹֽד׃
Praise ye the LORD. Blessed is the man that feareth the LORD, that delighteth greatly in his commandments.
Μακάριοι οἱ πτωχοὶ τῷ πνεύματι ὅτι αὐτῶν ἐστιν ἡ βασιλεία τῶν οὐρανῶν
Blessed are the poor in spirit: for theirs is the kingdom of heaven.
אֹרֶךְ יָמִים בִּֽימִינָהּ בִּשְׂמֹאולָהּ עֹשֶׁר וְכָבֽוֹד׃
Length of days is in her right hand; and in her left hand riches and honour.
צַדִּיקִים יִֽירְשׁוּ-אָרֶץ וְיִשְׁכְּנוּ לָעַד עָלֶֽיהָ׃
The righteous shall inherit the land, and dwell therein for ever.
אַשְׁרֵי כָּל-יְרֵא יְהוָה הַהֹלֵךְ בִּדְרָכָֽיו׃
Blessed is every one that feareth the LORD; that walketh in his ways.
הַלְאֵל יִסְכָּן-גָּבֶר כִּֽי-יִסְכֹּן עָלֵימוֹ מַשְׂכִּֽיל׃
Can a man be profitable unto God, as he that is wise may be profitable unto himself?
διδαχαῖς ποικίλαις καὶ ξέναις μὴ περιφέρεσθε· καλὸν γὰρ χάριτι βεβαιοῦσθαι τὴν καρδίαν οὐ βρώμασιν ἐν οἷς οὐκ ὠφελήθησαν οἱ περιπατήσαντες
Be not carried about with divers and strange doctrines. For it is a good thing that the be heart established with grace; not with meats, which have not profited them that have been occupied therein.
אִמְרוּ צַדִּיק כִּי-טוֹב כִּֽי-פְרִי מַעַלְלֵיהֶם יֹאכֵֽלוּ׃
Say ye to the righteous, that it shall be well with him: for they shall eat the fruit of their doings.
אֲשֶׁר חֹטֶא עֹשֶׂה רָע מְאַת וּמַאֲרִיךְ לוֹ כִּי גַּם-יוֹדֵעַ אָנִי אֲשֶׁר יִהְיֶה-טּוֹב לְיִרְאֵי הָאֱלֹהִים אֲשֶׁר יִֽירְאוּ מִלְּפָנָֽיו׃
Though a sinner do evil an hundred times, and his days be prolonged, yet surely I know that it shall be well with them that fear God, which fear before him:
